Why do truckers take 4 or MORE miles to pass another semi? One passing will be running about 1/4 mph faster than the guy he is passing... don't want to take it off cruise control? Truckers that lazy they cant put their foot on the petal and press down until they pass? I always thought when you drove a semi for a living it made you a professional driver but most look like a bunch of morons to me.
It is because their trucks are governed at a set speed limit... Supposed to be a safty thing? Most do it for fuel savings!.
So now you have 2 trucks set at 65 mph, one is at 80,000 pounds and the other is lighter... So one pulls to damn near completion of a pass going up a hill, until they crest the top of a hill and the heavy truck pulls ahead! I have seen it too many times LOL One reason I quit going to the east side of the country! 10 gallons of poop in a 5 gallon bucket!!!
yes very unproffessional especially when you can see a mile of cars behind you waiting to pass... then they get frustrated and start passing each other back behind the dueling dummies...
